Though not as well-known as his songs and operettas, the chamber music of Reynaldo Hahn (1874–1947) nevertheless includes some of his finest scores. It is thus not to be overlooked within his oeuvre, nor should it be considered subsidiary to his contribution to the musical theater.
The present recording of the chamber music oeuvre of Reynaldo Hahn by the Quatuor Tchalik and Dania Tchalik on the piano is a project that coincides with the major retrospective, both musical and iconographic, on the Venezuelan-born French composer organized by the Palazzetto Bru Zane in 2019.
